Dianthus nitidus

D. nitidus. Another pretty Pink, with leaves somewhat similar to those of D. alpinus, but with generally more acute points. The stems spring from tufts of grass-like leaves, and have from two to three flowers. It is a native of the calcareous Alps in Hungary, growing in alpine pastures and opening its rose-coloured dentate petals in August and September. As it suffers greatly from damp, choose a dry position for it, wedged between stones.
